If you preordered Rodea: The Sky Soldier from Amazon, keep an eye on your inbox. Some people are receiving a notice of delay. The message below was sent to someone that purchased the Wii U version, which Amazon says is now slated for sometime around Nov. 16th-20th.

We have received new release date information related to your pre-ordered video game in the order you placed on *******. The release date for the video game listed below has been changed by the publisher.

No official word from the publisher yet, and also no details on the 3DS version. If you get an email about a delay, please pass it along to us. We'll try to get confirmation on this info.

An interesting post over at MCV seems to indicate that the Nintendo store in Europe will be offering a new subscription box service, similar to Loot Crate in the US. The article states that it will be called the "N-Box", which will feature toys, clothes and other merchandise from popular Nintendo franchises. The article also states that they will be available individually, and can be subscribed to a 3, 6 or 12 month plan.

Nintendo hasn't commented on this officially yet, so we'll have to consider this all speculation in the meantime. What would you like to see in an official Nintendo goody crate?

- most stores around the United States will get about 50 Dark Pit amiibo each
- 15 or so seems like the low end
- some locations are expecting 80 units
- Best Buy's not offering a pre-order window or online ordering for this amiibo

Here's a juicy rumor for you guys and gals. We're all hoping that Dragon Quest XI is going to come to a Nintendo platform, but it wasn't looking too likely. We heard that Square-Enix was bringing the next entry to consoles. Wii U didn't seem plausible, but we've also heard in the past that Square-Enix brings their games to the most popular platforms in Japan. There's no denying 3DS is the most popular platform out right now, and a 2ch rumor tied to the earlier leaked logo is saying that the title will get both 3DS and PS4 versions. Ni no Kuni saw DS and PS3 releases, so such unique platform support isn't out of the question. Thanks to VGAMER for the heads up!

We haven't heard any details on Pokken coming to the United States. The only close thing to a confirmation comes from Reddit, where Kevin Bachus, Senior VP of the Dave and Buster's chain, announced that they would be testing. While this is a good indication, Nintendo has yet to confirm anything so keep your eyes and ears out for a response from them.
